“The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”

We take wonders for granted

POSTED BY BILL

The most important physical object in our existence gets taken totally for granted.  Global warming alarmists dismiss its influence - yet think changing your light bulb can 'save the planet'.  I refer of course to our star, AKA "The Sun."

We now have real time observatories 180 degrees apart in solar orbit and can view the entire sun at once.  What amazing things can be done with barely a notice, while millions can discuss the latest Kardashian shenanigans in great detail.

That scientists have done this is pretty incredible. That global-warming alarmists don't think the sun as any effect on our climate is as pathetic as it is absurd.

The sun is not subject to political control, so bestows no advantage to socialists. There also seems to be a lot of government grant money going to scientists who see things the "right way."
